My fantasy league is trying to veto my trade for the dumbest reason.
By @ashliterally · Sports
It's a standard trade, nothing crazy, but some of the guys are saying it's unfair because my team is already in first place. I'm just playing the game to win, isn't that the whole point?
The full story
I'm the commissioner of my fantasy baseball league and I take it seriously. I'm currently in first and just made a trade to get another solid arm for the summer stretch. The other manager accepted, but now half the league is blowing up the group chat screaming "VETO!" They're saying I'm trying to create a "super team" and ruin the league. It's not collusion, it's a legit trade! They can't just block moves because they're salty I'm winning. It feels like they're just trying to hold me back.
